Most likely either the whole "Engies are resistant to spies thing" or the "The spy is very hit and miss as it is" or "the last thing spies need is additional difficulty"

New sentry: The Mecha-sniper. It has a long reload time and does the damage of a half-charged body shot. It cannot headshot. Is affected by statuses (Uber'd, Kritz'd, Pissed on, buffed, stunned). Cannot move. Has a chance to miss entirely (Depending on range or some-such). Prioritizes Medics, kritz'd patients, people pushing cart, etc.

"Engies are resistant to spies thing"

They are, It takes VERY good timing to take out an engie with a level-3 sentry nearby- you have to sap it then backstab the engie before he notices.

"The spy is very hit and miss as it is"

The spy dies more than any other class, why do you think backstabs are worth 2 points?

"the last thing spies need is additional difficulty"

This is true, I see no confusion here.

Maybe there will be an item that will make engineers an easier target for spies when used? After all, the bow was put it to make snipers come in closer and make them more vulnerable. Something like rewarding the engineer for standing still, longer upgrading time (the animation where the sentry can't fire) or something that would make an engineer stay in another room more.

OHAIDER.
Skibiliano convinced me to get steam, so ah did.
I joined the group, if anyone wants to add me as friend go for it.
I also just bought TF2, so if anyone could fill me in on the basics (unless there's a "tutorial" of sorts?) that'd be dandy.

[Jakkarra]

I'll teach you the game if you want, Applemaster.

I'll be on steam later, Name's Jakkarra, Email is (is you need to use that): Jakkarra@MSN.com

Man, what was wrong with the server? I was lagging for four or five seconds at a time, then I'd play fine for half a minute, then I'm lagging. I was practically playing turn-based.

[Apple Master]

That'd be awesome.
I'll add you on Steam friends, just in case.
It's on 25% at the moment, so it shouldn't be that long..

happens to me too. We're probably too far away from the server and I actually lag people, so now I can never return.

[Apple Master]

When i try connecting to any server, it hangs on "getting server info" and then crashes.
is that purely my internet being slow or what?

It's happening to me nowadays as well. Normally, even if my ping is nutso, I can somewhat adapt but when it becomes slideshow... well...

1) Pick heavy as your class
2) never stop shooting
3) press C then 3 (repeat as needed)

With this winning strategy you shall be unstoppable!

[Sensei]

I actually think I like all the classes (Scout being the hardest for me to play, most likely due to packet loss).

But, is there an FAQ on crafting somewhere? And how about rankings? These confuse me.

[Zai]

Whadduya mean by "rankings"?

[Baldin Brewbeard]

TF2Wiki has a page on crafting, has all the recipes.
